URKEST, Manager FALL V. HESTER, Editors NOT A MATTER OF INTEREST The interest to be paid by Victory Liberty Bonds to be issued in April is not known. And we don't care. We know the next and last Liberty loan will be a whopper—probably six billions—and that's enough to start us preparing to raise it. Americans with the reputation of being dollar chasers won't pay a great deal of attention to the interest of these short term bonds, because there is always bobbing into our minds the thought of the interest our partners—the Yanks—received on their investment. When our boys went into the Argonne forest, St. Mihiel, Chateau-Thierry, Cantignyand Belleau wood, they didn't stop and ask the platoon commander what bonus they would get if they won the objective or ask for a guaranty against loss. They sacrificed when they joined the army and they were willing to make the supreme sacrifice. Regardless of financial drains for the government or for charity, it has been "pretty soft for us" and if the government chooses to start its last Liberty Loan drive on the second day, one stuck on themselves. The man who was responsible that little write-up, of whose Plain Dealer is well acquainted me a world of good, in that he already brought to my attention 96 different methods of proof It is so bad to have rats, lawful to have them come out open and wink at you. In measuring that big one of in your paper, I will admit sake of argument that there little judging done. This poor little rat after been relieved of all earthly ties laid out full length on the floor I started to measure from his tall forward for a distance eight inches, and as my attest was then called to a waiting mer, some big stiff move dth ahead another eight inches. To the time, I was not aware of, the unusual length. Respectfully. A.

They sacrificed when they joined the army and they were willing to make the supreme sacrifice. Regardless of financial drains for the government or for charity, it has been "pretty soft for us" and if the government chooses to start its last Liberty Loan drive on the second anniversary of our entry into the war or before, you can bet your last dollar that the fellows who are wisely shaking their heads and saying, "It's going to be a hard job," will buckle in and have a part in the glory of showing our fighters htat the folks at ho emare "bears" at big jobs themselves. It's not a matter of interest. Letters to Editor ALEXANDER—THE GREAT RAT CATCHER Editor Plain Dealer: In my travels to and from the Santa Fe depot, yesterday, I was stopped just exactly 60 times with a request to produce that rat spoken of in the columns of the Plain Dealer of Wednesday's issue as having been caught by me. I will admit that I am the proud possessor of rats of unusual size and cunning as a fox. They are particularly fond of the more sticky forms of glue, and I have frequently found the more enlight- Rear view of "The Little Fellow with the Big Pull."

WATER COMPANY ELECTS DIRECTORS YORBA LINDA, Jan. 27 (Special) The annual meeting of the Yorba Linda Water Co. was held Tuesday at the company office. A large number of stockholders were present. The chief business of the meeting was the election of officers for the ensuing year. The result of this election was a list of seven directors as follows: D. A. Speer, T. B. Welch, Rev. Marsh, G. W. Wells, Arthur Stley, J. H. Barton and G. F. Collins. The Woman's Missionary Society of the Presbyterian church held its election of officers the past week. Mrs. J. L. Shaw was made president, Mrs. T. B. Welch vice president, Mrs. Carr treasurer and Mrs. E. R. Walker secretary. Mr. Souter left Thursday morning to spend the week-end at Brawley transacting business. Mrs. Souter spent the week-end visiting friends in Los Angeles. Mrs. Nelson Young has been visiting with her sister, Mrs. Charles Selover, during the past week, to aid in caring for her niece, Miss Winifred, who has been suffering from an absence on her throat. Mrs. McCarty and little daughter, Vivian, have returned from Catalina, where the family have been spending several months. Mr. McCarty is expected home before long. The Woman's Club, which had charge of the cafeteria luncheon held at Ley hall on Tuesday, for the stockholders of the Water Co., netted perior Egg Farm." The complaint alleges that on May 10, 1917, the defendant contracted to purchase a carload of twenty-five tons of Kansas Red bran at $1.50 per ton and two tons of Kansas mildd at $62 per ton; that the merchandise was delivered at a station on the P.E. on May 24, and that the brothers refused to accept the shipment. The total contract amounted to $1411.50. The goods were returned to Los Angeles and sold at the best possible price, the sum of $1046 being realized. The plaintiff asks judgment for the difference between the amount QU —It is our aim in all things not such superior will be a pleasant —To that end we the most compli It is our aim in all things now such superior will be a pleasure To that end we the most complete Pacific Coast with every possible purchaser.

Browning of Fontana says he has ten acres of citrus orchards and his 110 hens furnish all the fertilizer required. This is interesting testimony, as the authorities are now talking citrus and chickens all the time. Mr. Browning is brooding 750 new White Leghorn chicks and has ordered 800 more. He ordered the same number this time but was unable to get them. Leghorn baby chicks have just doubled in value since the high price of eggs. Mr. Browning's chicks come from Van Nuys. Apropos the talk about combining citrus and chickens, Dix Van-Dyke of the Barstow-Daggett-Hincley section says that something surely will have to be done, as men are hunting up every old cattle corral that no one had paid any attention to for years out on the desert, and not only paying a good price for the fertilizer but hauling it away at their own expense.

RECREATION CENTER Establishment of a recreational center in Santa Ana, a democratic institution where every member of the community may go to play, was proposed at a meeting of Santa Ana pastors and others interested in the upbuilding of the community, held at the First Methodist church. Rather than the conventional Y, M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. buildings, which are designed especially for young men and young women, several of the speakers urged one big recreational institution, which all organizations in the city might use, and thus make use of the equipment open to all residents of the city. Several methods of obtaining the desired result were discussed, but the only concrete action taken was opointment of a committee which will in turn nominate a larger committee of 15 to 15 members to act as a "community council," whose duty it shall be to study Santa Ana's need for recreation and to outline a plan showing how this need can best be met.

BIG AVIATION SHOW What promises to be the most spectacular aerial show ever will be put on in San Diego Saturday, Feb. 1, by the members of the Rockwell field, North Island. The program calls for trick night flying, including a night bombing raid, an aerial combat between two American aces who have just returned from the battlefields of France, and who will personate an American and German flyer in mortal combat, with the boche family "crashing." In addition there will be a program of athletic entertainments, dancing will be provided for, and there will be a baloon ascension and parachute drop. Visitors will also have an opportunity to get a thorough inspection of Rockwell field, as this place is to be thrown wide open for the benefit of the public. Another distinctive feature will be a fifty mile airplane race between British, French and American combat airplanes. There will also be a flying circus.
